14 DAY TRIAL // Linksys has made available two new firmware packages targeted at its E900 and E1200 routers, namely version 1.0.06.2 and 2.0.07.2, respectively, which comply with CE EN300328 v1.8.1 regulatory and address various security vulnerabilities.
If you intend to apply these updates, first of all make sure you own a compatible router; the new versions are only suitable for E900 v1.0, E1200 v2.0, and E1200 v2.2 wireless products. Do not try to install them on other models, as this might cause various device malfunctions.
In addition to that, after downloading the appropriate .bin file for your unit, it is highly recommended that you establish a wired connection between the router and the computer using an Ethernet cable (wireless technology might disconnect occasionally).
Afterwards, log into the device’s administration panel using your username and password, and check its currently installed firmware to make sure it isn’t either newer or matching the latest release mentioned above.
Now, if all is ok and done properly, go to the Administration > Firmware Upgrade section, click the “Browse” button, locate and select the .bin file you have saved previously, click “Open,” and wait for the router to do its job.
While installing (a progress bar will be displayed), make sure you don’t disconnect the power/Ethernet cable, reboot your router/computer, or interrupt the process in any way. Upon completion, you will be prompted with an appropriate message.
Finally, once the firmware has been applied and your router restarted, Linksys recommends that you press and hold the “Reset” button for 10 seconds, unplug the power cord for another 10 seconds, and then plug it back in.
That being said, download Linksys E1200 Firmware 2.0.07.2 or download Linksys E900 Firmware 1.0.06.2, take into account all aforementioned steps, upgrade your router, and constantly check our website to stay “updated one minute ago.”
